I've just noticed the spooling script for the datespool on rain isn't
running.  Looks like it stopped on 24th, so I'm guessing it didn't
get restarted after the power cycle...

Lars, can you restart it (and perhaps add something to rc.d)?

Cheers,

Permalink - link to whole thread ?

How should a novice go from Permalink to the whole thread ? :-(

In Loom (mid.gmane.org) on can click on subject.
It is not good (it leads to the root message instead of current - but 
that is minor misfeature).

With Blog/Permalink - there seems no way.

Compare it with Google Groups :-)

Click on the "Go to the topic" link under the headline "Topic" in the
left column?

  Best regards,

That's nice, the thread view was a PITA with my browsers,
after s/thread/comments/ in the URL it's much better.

At least for short threads, I haven't tested the various
settings.  A "GMaNe cookie editor" page (or for Arioch
"GMaNe preferences" ;-) could be nice for this purpose.

                    Thanks for info, Frank

Reported spam and the datespool

A brief background for those not familiar with how the indexing is set
up: the indexing box maintains a second copy of the spool, with articles
arranged by date rather than group.  This makes it much faster to index
them in date order, which in turn allows for a very fast implementation
of "sort by date".

However, there's currently no mechanism for dealing with articles
reported as spam after they enter the datespool (or if there is, it's
not working).

The obvious place to see this is the 1970/01/01/00/00 bucket, which
gets all the articles with broken date headers, and spammers are the
worst offenders when it comes to broken date headers (libgmime has a
more forgiving date parser so these get a date in the search which
doesn't match the bucket, which isn't ideal either):

http://search.gmane.org/?group=comp.apache.bugs&sort=revdate

At least the first 10 hits are spam, and give "No such file." when
clicked on.

So ideally we want to hook something onto whatever renames the spam
articles out of the way to also delete them from the date spool and
potentially flag them for removal from the search index (though for now
they can just wait for the next full reindex as that'll be quite
frequent while I'm working on stuff).

Plus either regenerate the date spool or run through it checking that
the articles still exist in the main spool.

hm... Indeed.
Then it seems to be a bit hard to locate.
It seems natural to poke around message header and - there is nothing.

Perhaps TOPIC section is better to be swapped with RETURN section ?

Then, all the links on the left have titles, taken from context.
Name of the web project, name of the newsgroup.
Perhaps instead of simple "Go to the topic" there can be a bit more 
flexible "Read the whole discussion on the %SUBJ%" ?

And perhaps there to be two links: one to the root of the discussion, 
and other to the current message inside the whole discussion?

One more thing to wish is a tooltip (<abbr> ?) above the subject above 
the article. If the user stopped mouse over the subj, he might be 
confused and hence he moght want to get hint. ;)

At least if i had that hint, i would not seems so stupid now wuth this 
question :)

FileUploadException - read timed out with SSL

Hi,

I developed fileupload functionality using jsp/servlets and apache commons-
fileupload package and tested the same on websphere application server 5.0 and 
it was working fine. 

I converted my application to ibm portlet and deployed 
successfully. It was working fine on websphere portal server without SSL

But the file upload functionality doesnt work all the times when i enable SSL. 
It throws the following exection sometimes. 

Exception Details: 

org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadException: Processing 
of multipart/form-data request failed. Read timed out at 
org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadBase.parseRequest 
(FileUploadBase.java(Compiled Code)) at 
com.custupload.FileUploadPortlet.actionPerformed 
(FileUploadPortlet.java(Compiled Code)) at 
com.ibm.wps.pe.pc.legacy.SPIPortletInterceptorImpl.handleEvents 
(SPIPortletInterceptorImpl.java:360) at 
com.ibm.wps.pe.pc.legacy.invoker.impl.PortletDelegateImpl._dispat 
ch(PortletDelegateImpl.java:408) at 
com.ibm.wps.pe.pc.legacy.invoker.impl.PortletDelegateImpl.access 
$200(PortletDelegateImpl.java:62) at 

It works fine on tomcat 4.1 even its running on SSL.

Can anyone tell me why this is happening only when i enable SSL on websphere
